First CD of the year to go on my year-end best-of list

I have been playing the Fiery Furnaces' "EP" (41 minutes despite the name) pretty regularly since it came out earlier this month. The Fiery Furnaces divide the world into those who wince and those who say, "Okay, I'm done being a nice guy about this: If you don't like Blueberry Boat, I don't like you." Between the precious or precocious twenty-something sensibility, the careening around within and between songs, and the sound that somebody called early Who meets Captain Beefheart plus a chanteuse, they are not for every palate. Then again, Radiohead hasn't done much for me. Some will find "EP" irresistible even if they steered clear of the FFs' first two CDs.

Saw your blog about account bank international number - as it is along the same lines I thought I would share this link with you. We were paying far too much for family things like clothes for us and the kids, games consoles inc the new Wii and soon to be PS3, car insurance/home insurance/pet insurance, broadband, mobile phones, landline calls, home and garden items, camping equipment and utilities/loans etc - you name it, we were spending too much on it.

......Good blog - very interesting!! I liked it so much I'm going to share this hush hush advice with you. Ever wondered how your neighbours are driving around in their brand new BMW or Mercedes cars - with their kids dressed in all the latest named gear and foreign holidays aplenty??
